Study Summary

This randomized phase II trial studies how well transoral surgery followed by low-dose or standard-dose radiation therapy works in treating patients with human papilloma virus (HPV) positive stage III-IVA oropharyngeal cancer. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known how much extra treatment needs to be given after surgery.

Primary Outcome

Progression-free survival is defined as the time from randomization/assignment of post-surgical treatment to the appearance of lesions, including primary, nodal or new site, or death, whichever occurs first. These patients are considered disease-free after surgery so the appearance of any lesions is counted as progression. Kaplan-Meier estimate was used to characterize progression-free survival rate at 2 years.
